After 3 games...two of which were exhibitions...here is what I see as areas to improve for 'Cuse to be a final 4 team:

1. Half court offensive flow is poor.  No passes into the paint...if this continues we are going to be hurt by good parimeter defense by opponents
2. Too much one-one play...yes Dion is a scorer; KJ too; but their baskets are being made one-one...not saying bad...just saying no flow...# assists to baskets...
3.  Scoop has not looked like a good lead guard...he seems lethargic or sleep walking...thought I would never say this...but Scoop seems to throw one pass and then get out of way...he needs to be set up man...JB should instill a four pass rule before a shot...and work ball inside-out
4.  Triche needs to find the basket...30% shooting is not good...if he is to be the two guard he needs to do more scoring on less shots
5.  Overall team has not shown a winning % on FTs...that will cost us wins if not fixed
6.  We should be dominating on rebounding and we are not...Triche should not be lead rebounder
7.  Terrific depth...but there is little flow and continuity on the floor...if we keep substituting to degree we are doing...then I recommend a two squad group...run both groups as much or little as needed...but then each squad practices and plays with teammates they know very well...not sure inserting two at a time is a good thing as each player has positives and flaws...let them play with those who know them best...And...I do not care with this depth level which is five guy squads
